In a critical situation with several key players sidelined, Alain Giresse, the coach of the Senegal national team, is contemplating calling up Demba Ba for the return match against Ivory Coast in the Play-offs for the Brazil 2014 World Cup.
Acknowledging the team’s recent struggles, Giresse is keen on bringing in experienced players to address the challenges faced by the squad. He emphasized the need to avoid youthful mistakes and naivety in the game, recognizing that such errors have contributed to the difficult situation.
Giresse expressed his consideration for players who were overlooked, including Demba Ba, as he evaluates potential reinforcements for the upcoming match. He stressed the importance of making decisions based on the team’s needs and maintaining effective communication with the players.
The return match is set to take place in Casablanca, and Senegal, led by Papis Cissé and his teammates, faces a two-goal deficit that they must overcome to qualify for the World Cup in Brazil.
